The overturn of Glass-Steagall can lead to some very interesting opportunities. Although bank PE's are low, some of the insurers are lower. It may become attractive for banks to enter insurance markets via stock merger with some of the insurance companies that are selling below book value.

The problem with a WAMU takeover is it is just itself getting organized after eating quite a few S&L's itself. It would be acquiring second-hand indigestion.

I like the company a lot though, and am hating that I didn't buy it back at 28, which was my target price. Hopeful to get a second chance.
